BTS: • This was one of the last poems I wrote for the book. • I *agonised* over the word choice for “reminisced”. • I wrote this poem as a challenge to myself: could I write a coming-of-age poem in exactly fifty words? (Spot the tropes!) #APassingOnOfShells

How absolutely gorgeous to hear this poem (and ‘How to Start an Adventure’) read out live on the radio by @RebeccaLeek_ on @Suffolk_Sound this weekend. And read beautifully, I must say. Perfectly themed for their race day special. Thanks to Rebecca, the rest of the Rs, and team!

Just a reminder that I’m not very active on X these days — a decision that has cost me in the school bookings department. But there we go. Come find me on other socials and let’s play badminton. Or, you know, let’s play with words. Or whatever.
This is very generous. 🩵 Search out Coral’s own books. They’ve appeared within my “Yeah, but what is a poetry book?” project these past few years. Here’s to poetry!

First school visit in ages (due to a health episode that was a whole thing) and I couldn’t have been smiling wider by the end of it. We’re so back.

Happy Burns Day! 🎉 Later this year, we’ll be publishing a modern day reimagining of ‘Tam o’ Shanter’ by Robert Burns. ‘Mat o’ Shanter: A Cautionary Tale’ by Carnegie-nominated author @approx21words, & illustrations by Scottish muralist Ross MacRae, publishes on 25 September.
Our first event of 2025 is going to be a blast. 4 brilliant poets sharing the love of poetry is what the doctor ordered for a dark January evening. Thursday, the 16th, at 7.00. It's a free event, but you need to register vimeo.com/event/4602048/… @FCBGNews @The_UKLA @OpenUni_RfP
✨🎄✨ We wish you a merry Christmas. Yes, there is dark. But, remember, there is also – always – light. x
Absolutely loved it. Thanks for hosting VELCRO POETRY. Cracking way to tie off 2024 with this wee programme.

🏴 It's St Andrew's Day on Saturday! 🏴 Why not share the story of St Andrew, the Saltire, and a class trip to the local library with @approx21words' 'The Storytellers of Lochancreel' bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0h…

💥 It’s back and it’s the biggest tour yet! Schools across Scotland, don’t miss out on the most epic – and most surprising! – celebration of Tam o’ Shanter, Robert Burns and so much more this winter. Get in touch today to book a visit your students and staff will never forget.
This has been the best summer of my life. I’ve worked hard. I’ve played hard. Reflecting, as today is the last day of my “summer holiday”. 😅 What’s next? September is packed. The fun begins tomorrow. 💪 I just don’t know that X is really the place for me anymore. We’ll see.
